(http://nccte.com/publications/infosynthesis/index.html).  If you would 
like paper copies of any of these, send your request to (ndccte@osu.edu)

Career Academies by Sandra Kerka
The Career Academy is a high school model that integrates school-to-work 
elements in a personalized learning environment. Academies were originally 
designed as a lifeline for students at risk of dropping out. Today, the 
more than 1,500 career academies in the United States serve a broad 
cross-section of students preparing for college and work (Kemple and Snipes 
2000). What are career academies? Are they effective? What are the best 
ways to implement the concept?

Web-Based Training by Michael Wonacott
To many educators, web-based training (WBT) is the constructivist 
ideal-learners can construct meaning through self-directed inquiry, guided 
activity, and group collaboration on the information highway, the digital 
library, cyberspace, the global village. But is this vision of WBT as the 
constructivist ideal real or illusory (Wilson and Lowry in press)?
